Summary	0003428: Some samples cannot be opened in Blend because of misconfigured Fonts directories
Description	BlendTutorial, Gallery, Inventory, Menu3D, and RadialMenu are affected. Opening MainWindow.xaml for any of these results in an unhandled exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'D:\NoesisGUI-ManagedSDK-3.2.4-Indie\Src\Samples\Menu3D\Projects\blend\Fonts\'. Looks like the directory it's looking for is here: D:\NoesisGUI-ManagedSDK-3.2.4-Indie\Src\Samples\Menu3D\Src\Fonts I'm not familiar with how any of this works yet, so I dunno what has gone wrong here.
Steps To Reproduce	Download and extract the Managed SDK Open the Samples solution with Blend Open MainWindow.xaml for any of the affected projects

sfernandez 2024-07-09 13:39 manager ~0009769	Are you using Blend for Visual Studio 2022? We found WPF Designer on that version very unstable and with some features missing. We recommend stick to 2019 version.
